Join Barry as he breaks in to a secret laboratory to commandeer the experimental jetpacks from the clutches of science evildoers. After lift-off, simply touch the screen to ascend and release to descend, raining bullets, bubbles, rainbows and lasers downwards as you fly towards higher and higher scores!

You'll start off with the legendary Machine Gun Jetpack to scatter the evil scientists, but throughout each game you'll collect coins and complete missions to earn cash and buy new gear in The Stash! Pick your favorite jetpack, snazzy outfit and stock up on items then get back out there for more action!

Keen reflexes are your best weapon to avoid the obstacles in your path. These include lasers, electricity fields and even guided missiles, but thankfully this is a top secret lab - there will be even more goodies to pick up and help Barry along the way. Stay out of harm and you'll reach massive scores, unlock Achievements and beat your friends on the online leaderboards!

Get a boost of speed and power using the Lil' Stomper, Profit Bird and Crazy Freaking Teleporter, just a selection of the vehicles pickups available - all playable with one touch controls. You can even splash out and upgrade the vehicles with coin magnets or shiny gold plating for that bonus style factor!

Stay alive, get funky and lose yourself in Jetpack Joyride. There's so much to see and do, all the time in the world and more than enough jetpacks! As always, Barry Steakfries will provide!

Love it!!

I LOVE THIS GAME AND EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!!! I love the animation, but most of all, Barry. I mean, Barry Steakfries must be the BEST name EVER. I love the animation. But I only dislike 2 things. I don't like the inconsistent mission updates. I don't because I try to check how many meters I have gone for say, on foot. It still has the starting number. I am also a little disappointed at DJ Barry. I thought I would get this AWESOME dub step remix, but it isn't as cool as I thought it was going to be. I like the original more. But then again, it might just be me, and my taste for music. I also think that for DJ Barry, you could buy different genre music remixes for like, 10,000 coins. I just was thinking, and I wish you the best, HalfBrick! And also, all the people who have laggy games, it must be your device because I think I downloaded it with the newest update and mine is fine, never been laggy. I forgot to mention I love the strong arm machine, or S.A.M. feature. I have an account with HalfBrick and they've never done anything to me. I ador this app and nothing is wrong with it. GO HATE SOMEWHERE ELSE!

Vehicle overload

What is this sudden fixation on vehicles in this latest in iteration? Suddenly every mission seems to have some vehicle associated with it. You either have to get Mr. cuddles five times or destroy the teleporter or travel a certain number of meters in a certain vehicle or anyone of a number of vehicle missions. I still give it four stars, but come on guys, get over this vehicle kick! Edit: I've reduced it to 2 stars since this vehicle-fixation continues. I've taken to leaving the "free ride" gadget on all the time and allowing Barry to get fried if I don't get the vehicle I need. If they fix that and some of the other quirky items, I'll come back and rate this five stars which is where it should be.Edit2: The vehicle fixation is only marginally better; HOWEVER, I'm still getting "No new missions available" in the MIDDLE of getting a badge. AND, it keeps asking if I want to upgrade to the latest version and I have the latest version!!! C'mon guys, fix these minor irritations and I take it back to 5 stars!!

Great, but it was better

Jet pack Joyride is a really amazing and entertaining game. I enjoy the variety in jet packs and clothing. I don't really care much about what the missions require, but I care whether or not the missions actually work. Before the new cloud update, I finished a series of missions and was awarded a medal. I decided not to cash it in. After the update, the game started giving me missions to complete even though i didn't cash in my medal. Furthermore, I don't even receive money when I complete a level. It's funny because i don't even gain stars after a mission so I'm basically completing an infinite number of missions with no money profit. I would like this game more if the rainbow jet pack came back into this game. Overall, this game is great, but was better.
